Beyonce’sname is as synonymous with glamour as it is music.
The pop titan’s career is liberally littered with both hits on theBillboard Hot 100and major style moments.
She even has her own successful fashion brand Ivy Park (viaVogue).
It’s safe to say Bey has the sort of style everyone wants to emulate.
Even the mogul herself has been known to reference the past.
How can you blame her when her style is just that good?
Beyonce never lets the opportunity pass her up.
Take her “No Angel” music video (viaYouTube), for example.
The visual is a tribute to her hometown Houston (viaVice).
This one is centered around a statement magenta lip.
Luckily, her makeup artist Sir John told People how to copy it at home.
What products do you need?
Sir John defined her lips using Urban Decay Cosmetics’s 24/7 Glide-On Lip Pencil in shade Speedball.
According to him, it’s an essential step that “allows your lipstick to stay on longer.”
But what lipstick did he use?
That’s where beauty guru Brittany Cale comes into play.
She did some digging to nail the specifics onTikTok.
She said Sir John used the Retro Matte Lipstick in shadeFlat Out Fabulousfrom MAC Cosmetics.
The Urban Decay liner has been discontinued, but Cale recommended picking up a lip pencil in shadeMagentafrom MAC.
He told People how to pull the rest of the look together.
Chiefly, it’s all about the eyes.
Sir John finished Bey’s eyes with brown mascara.
Why brown instead of black?
According toByrdie, a brown mascara is ideal for a softer, natural glam.
Since her lips were colorful, we’d guess that the goal was not to draw attention elsewhere.
Sir John described it as “modern … Like a New York girl.”
Clearly he must have meant a New York girl by way of Houston, Texas.
